Terraform Initialize Error on Azure Devops release pipeline

I am trying to setup the release pipeline on azure DevOps with terraform configuration to create resource on Azure cloud. I have already created the main.tf and resources but while initializing the terraform thru tasks, it gives me the following error. somehow, i guess it is not able to identify the terraform.exe installed from terraform installer (previous task).

I can see that terraform installer is successfully able to install the given version of terraform, but the Initialize task is not able to locate it.

Above are the logs of terraform installer. Please help to resolve it. Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • The Terraform tool installer task indicates it has successfully installed the terraform, so the Initialize task is able to find it actually.

    I can reproduce the same error when the directory is not specified correctly in Initialize task:

    You have two artifacts download, make sure directory is correct so that it's able to find the tf files.

    The pipeline succeeds then:
